I know nothing of trains, but if a train-head happens to see the set, I'd be interested to hear a more (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Bill: Did you happen to notice whether the set included a new catalog, or was it the same late-2003 pamphlet that's been in circulation for a while? This is my lingering complaint about MEGABLOKS--too often the catalogs are out of date, to (...) (21 years ago, 1-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Hi Gail! I stumbled across this set online recently and mentioned it to our LUGNET train-fans here: (URL) I think you're right about the $50US guess--it'll retail for about $49.99, give or take.

(...) Thanks for the pics. (...) Hmm. Well usinging the more acurate dimensions compared to the UCS Star Desyroyer the Enterprise set would be 616 meters long.

I found (URL) set 9795> at a Wal*Mart in Western PA over the weekend. The price was $49.99, which, if memory serves, was the MSRP of the (URL) set a few years back.
